Quotes from the same author

O men with sisters dear, O men with mothers and wives, It is not linen you 're wearing out, But human creatures' lives!
 Thomas Hood
Mother of light! how fairly dost thou go Over those hoary crests, divinely led! Art thou that huntress of the silver bow Fabled of old? Or rather dost thou tread Those cloudy summits thence to gaze below, Like the wild chamois from her Alpine snow, Where hunters never climbed--secure from dread?
 Thomas Hood
While the steeples are loud in their joy, To the tune of the bells' ring-a-ding, Let us chime in a peal, one and all, For we all should be able to sing Hullah baloo.
 Thomas Hood
Extremes meet', as the whiting said with its tail in its mouth.
 Thomas Hood
With fingers weary and worn, With eyelids heavy and red, A woman sat in unwomanly rags, Plying her needle and thread.
 Thomas Hood
